| − | Nominated for six Golden Globes and seven Emmys, such as Outstanding Series - Comedy, Sanford And Son became a single of the very first shows in tv background to be practically entirely centered around African-American characters. Modeled right after the British Tv show Steptoe And Son, the series showcased the underappreciated talents of comic genius Redd Foxx (whose skin color and poor language prevented him from becoming a superstar decades earlier). The brainchild of All In The Family members creator Norman Lear, Sanford And Son signaled the beginning of a decade of sitcom classics for the prolific 1970's Tv writer - Maude (1972), Good Times (1974), and The Jeffersons (1975) getting the other people. Wrought with memorable one-liners and effectively-timed humor, Sanford And Son was a Best ten Nielsen rated show every single year in which it aired except for its final season (ranking a respectable #27)

| − | Sanford And Son, set in the Watts district of Los Angeles, follows the life of Fred Sanford (Redd Foxx), a 65-year-old African-American junk dealer who shares his business with his 34-year-old son Lamont (Demond Wilson). With Fred's wife Elizabeth getting passed away twenty years earlier, he typically evokes Lamont's sympathy by clutching his heart and proclaiming, "Oh, I am coming to join you Elizabeth!" But Fred always survives those close to fatal heart attacks, continuing to disperse sarcastic putdowns (often directed at his sister-in-law Esther) and racist stereotypical remarks aimed against whites and Hispanics (particularly Lamont's buddy Julio). Employing guilt to manipulate his ambitious son into staying and helping run the salvage shop instead of pursuing other endeavors, Fred Sanford spends most of his days lounging about the home (his junk store and house are one particular and the identical) and hanging out with his friends - Grady, Melvin, and Bubba Properly-written and hilarious, Sanford & Son is comedian Redd Foxx at his absolute greatest

When he and Fred get the statuette appraised, they figure out that they can fetch a bundle for it if they put it up for auction, but even though at the auction, the two choose to pose as purchasers to bid up the price, a decision that ends up costing them Other notable episodes from Season 1 incorporate "The Copper Caper" in which Fred and Lamont obtain their personal copper from a man who's been stealing the metal all across town, and "A Pad for Lamont" in which Lamont decides to move into his own apartment for privacy factors. At first, Fred is upset - until he learns he enjoys getting some time to himself
